COVID-19 Symptoms Explained: Experiencing a Headache

Among the many COVID-19 symptoms, headache may be the one we’re most likely to attribute to other causes, like dehydration or stress. But having a headache—while not the most common COVID-19 symptom—shouldn’t be ignored. That’s because a headache can be one of the first signs of this virus, even before fever and cough. A headache from COVID-19 can present differently than a migraine or tension headache. Researchers have discovered that some of the prominent features of a COVID-19 headache include:

Having a pulsing, pressing, or stabbing sensation

Occurring bilaterally (across the whole head)

Presenting with severe pressure that won’t respond to typical pain relievers, like ibuprofen and acetaminophen

Lasting for longer than three days

It’s not uncommon for a virus to cause headache symptoms; fighting an infection is a lot of work for your body! As your body mounts its immune response, your immune cells release cytokines, which are small proteins that can cause inflammation in the body. An excess of inflammation (coupled with fever, not sleeping well, and not drinking enough water) can lead to headaches.
